The sound system in WaGriz

NEZ has always been bad for hearing the PA system, at least since the 2003 expansion. I don’t really care about hearing the songs or the promotions but it would be really nice to hear and understand what Peter Christian and the referees are saying. On the other hand by now it may be more me than them. Maybe we could add a closed caption screen lol.
 
I have complained about our sound system for years. It never gets upgraded. Thats OK though, Bozeman has a larger big screen and much better sound system now than the Griz! No reason to not have speakers atop the North Endzone and on the sides of the stadium. I can't believe they cost that much and there isn't a sound engineer around who could wire them all to be in Sync!
Agree. Speakers throughout would solve the issue in my opinion. Bubs also plan to announce a stadium expansion/upgrades in the coming weeks as well. Hopefully we have some upgrades planned in the near future as well.
 
The sound system at Washington Griz is us screaming our asses off when the Griz are on defense. If you're not screaming too, then you're the one that's broke.

They keep doing upgrades while we just stay status Quo. They will seat 30K before us.
 
Great statement win against the Vandals last night. Really good effort, production and effort on all phases of the game. Really fun night.

But the sound system in the stadium is pathetic. 2 speakers at one end of the stadium. Couldn't hear a word that was being said and it was at a very low volume except for maybe fans near the speakers. The fact that it is either not recognized by the UM officials running the stadium tells me all I need to know about the people in charge of game day entertainment. If I was a sponsor I would be furious paying for gameday ads. They need to revamp the entire system and get speakers surrounding the entire stadium. For such an amazing stadium, the sound system is substandard.
Has nothing to do with people in change of game day entertainment. They work with what they have. They simply don't have the money to put in a brand new sound system. Plus 27,000 people show up every weekend so they can’t be doing that bad of a job. You should shell out the money to get it done!

Maybe they should have someone check to see if the existing speakers and amps are working properly or the perhaps the eq is set incorrectly correctly because there there’s very little bass coming from the speakers.

How much money do we need to keep contributing? Our ticket prices are the highest in the FCS. Where do we draw the line? Or where do we start to contribute for this to happen?

I would imagine that Learfield would chip in substantially, as they are the ones who are selling the advertising announcements.
 
If you think Wa Griz is bad, go to a basketball game at Dahlberg. Now that is an embarrassment. Both systems are in need of an upgrade. Our capital improvement expenditure list is long and pricey. We can complain about the cost of things, but it is the cost of being competitive in today's environment.
 
If we’re going to upgrade the sound system in the next few years, I hope that UM also upgrades the Griz Vision and replaces it with a larger video screen. Would be nice to be able to see it from all the way in the NEZ.
 
They need to ditch the DJ. His feed into the sound system reduces the volume significantly. Not sure if thats him or the equipment. But just play the music the old way.
 
Why? Didnt they pay for the video board a few years ago?
I believe they did through a financial arrangement that helped them with increased fees generated through their marketing arrangement with the University. That said pressure for profitability would dictate an arrangement that would bring in some 3rd party money coupled with some capital expense from the University. Their track record of opening their checkbook without some benefit isn't good...and before someone chimes in I don't mean the benefit of the crowd hearing the promotional messages "more" clearly...
